Repetation of a pattern
Design Studio 01
Research
This research clearly highlights the building’s history of serving multiple functions, yet always remaining deeply rooted in its past. One of its most significant early roles was as a lace factory, which played a key part in shaping its identity. In my design, I aimed to preserve the essence of this heritage by making lace a central, representational element—both symbolically and spatially—throughout the concept.
Project
Based on the site’s history and my research, I designed a craft shop that sells art supplies and hosts crochet lessons. The concept embraces the building’s heritage as a Lace Factory, blending its past and present. The design also addresses the building’s lack of natural light by focusing on effective lighting and interactive light games.
I drew inspiration from crochet’s repetitive patterns, integrating this into the interior by connecting planes to the building’s columns, creating a melting, tree-like structure. To further enhance the concept, I added niches in the walls, featuring natural stone ceaturing natural stone covers that align with the design pattern. These niches also serve as display areas.
